Syria has threatened to deport Adel al-Natour, a co-founder of Palestinian Islamic Jihad, in what Middle East Eye characterized as an "unlawful" action. Al-Natour, a former member of the organization, has been held without trial since his detention in late 2025, according to the outlet's reporting.

The precise grounds for the threatened deportation remain undisclosed. Al-Natour's prolonged detention without charges raises questions about his legal status and the Syrian government's rationale for the threatened removal, though details of his case have not been made public.
